I feel that I am a great caregiver because I am patient, understanding, a great listener, compassionate, and very caring. I believe in treating people the way I want to be treated. I am a positive person, I love to smile, and laugh. I am also trustworthy, supportive, and encouraging. When I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma Cancer (Stage 5) 6 years ago, my one and only Caregiver by the name of Barbara, was the absolute best. She took very good care of me, and was such a joy to have around. One day I told her that when I get better, I was going to become a Caregiver too because she was such an inspiration and blessing to me and my family. I am a natural born nurturer, and I love taking care of people. It gives me such a fulfillment in my spirit to know that I did something that day to make someone's life a little easier. I am proud of the fact that I was able to complete my courses to become a Certified Nurses Assistant 2 years ago, and I plan to go back to become State Tested to enhance my skills and knowledge in this particular field.

My dedication to excellence makes me a great caregiver! As a skilled Licensed Practical Nurse with more than 14 years of experience, both clients and co-workers would best describe me as an LPN dedicated beyond normal expectations; with a kind reflective nature and strong moral character. I became a care giver because caring for others was a natural inclination for me. My Mother first noticed my gift of caring for others when I cared for her following a surgical procedure. After cleaning, cooking, and picking up medications she called me a natural little "Florence Nightengale." As a Christian caring for others was not only my gift it was also my passion! I find myself blessed to be able to align my passion with my gift and it result in my life work! A personal achievement I am most proud of occurred when I was working at an Alzheimer's care facility. My assignment included a unit consisting of mostly bed ridden and wheel chair confined clients. Due to the decreased level of physical movement and activity most of the clients suffered from pressure ulcers, skin tears and wounds as a result of decreased circulation. This particular unit when assessed was never given above a C- grade within the excellence in level of care scoring system. Within a 3 month time period beneath my charge this same unit received an A+ pinning within the excellence in level of care scoring system. I am most proud to be a Nurse when both my client(s) and their families are safe, well cared for and happy with my care delivery!

Hello, My name is Talyn. I am a NATURAL caregiver by heart. Its always something that came natural to me. I look at professional caregiving no different than the way caring for my own mother or grand mother. Caregiving is a very rewarding experience for me and a consistent learning experience in which I value. I plan to continue my caregiving journey helping and encouraging others along the way. - Talyn C.

Hello! I am a very social person and always see the brighter side of things! I guess you could say my cup is always half full! My passion began many years ago when I became the caregiver of my Granny, who lived with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. I then took on the care of my father who had his first stroke in 2014. I have an AAS, BSN, and I am working on my Master's currently. I approach every situation with the thought of "what would I do if this was my family member?" No matter how small or big the need for services, one thing is gauranteed, I provide 100% ethical, safe, and fun care!

I am a very caring and nurturing person. I really enjoy helping people. I also know when to promote independence for my client. I encourage my clients to do their best. I enjoy the experience of learning how to help an individual. By doing so, it allows a bond of trust and companionship to form between my client and myself. I give 100% of my time and attention to my clients. I always learn so much from taking care of others which helps me to become such a kind, caring, understanding, attentive, and compassionate caregiver.

I enjoy being a personal assistant / caregiver as I love people and love to help those that need it. I am a people person and get along with anyone. It's such an awesome experience when you are able to help someone ensure their loved ones are cared for, life can always become busy at the least expected times.
